Hello,
I recently purchased an F2260 (guessing early 2000's), and it came with a F5211 quick hitch, a B2765 front blade, and half a PTO shaft (the half attached to the tractor).
1) I'm trying to get it set up with a front mower deck. I'm having a really tough time locating a 60" mower deck for it - the parts locator lists these decks as compatible:
RC60R-F30 (Rear Discharge)
RC60R-F30B (Rear Discharge)
RCK60-F30 (Side Discharge)
So here are several questions for anyone who might have more experience:
- Would a newer mower deck such as the RCK60P-F36 for the 80-series F mower fit my machine?
- Would there be modifications required?
- If the newer deck wouldn't fit, any advice on how to find one that would?
2) I bought a L2162 rotary sweeper, which looks like it'll fit the quick hitch but has no PTO shaft attached. Are PTO shafts fairly universal? I'm wondering if I find the mower deck and it comes with a PTO assembly, then would that same assembly likely fit this sweeper?
I really appreciate any advice you can offer - thanks in advance.
Geoff
